That's kind of interesting. I wonder what most kids' reactions are when they commit before the season. Do they start preparing for their college career with added purpose or do they breathe a sigh of relief and take it easy?
Hopefully Montez hits the weight room and comes screaming into camp next fall with drive and purpose.
His dad never rested or waited for anything to happen...he would go make it happen. I am sure he is like his dad in this regard so we CU fans should be very delighted with this recruit and it could be a huge get by the time he graduates from CU!!!!! Very excited about this commitment!
You gotta think that the family is pretty stoked about this.
We have an office in El Paso and I am there 4 or 5 times a year. One of my closest friends in our company was a big star in HS as a QB and SS in Baseball in ELP. He has always said the level of competition for baseball in ELP and the surrounding area is top notch. Football is to say the least, no so much, Del Valle is a big school, 5A and according to the locals they cannot compete with any of the west TX bullies even though ELP is the biggest town. In fact in the history of Texas HS football no team form ELP has even played for a title. The lone exception to that was a small religious only special classification in 2011 but never a public school in a standard 1-5A classification. The kid looks like he has some great skills hopefully we can coach him up

Damn. Do you think you can get your coworker to call or email Coach Mac before it's too late???? If only our staff looked into things like this before deciding to offer. By the way, is this your coworker?

Whatever, earlier in the thread someone asked about the "level of competition" and its not that high. That factors into the 2* rating, does it mean the kid can't play ? hell no. It does however mean that he is not playing against top defenses, and his HS coaching is in all likelihood not 5* either. The guy I was talking about was a helluva an athlete, his team won the city of ELP's only team state title in any team sport at that time (Baseball) He also got a full ride to play QB at SMU and gave it up to play minor league baseball. He is very dialed in in his hometown. I hope the kid is great, but facts are facts when your dealing with 17 and 18 year olds the odds are he is more Adam Bledsoe then he even a guy like Joel Klatt.
